Digital investment brokerage integrated into Santander's Latin American platform
Toro Investimentos rebranded as Santander Corretora in 2024, merging a fintech-native brokerage with Santander's regional infrastructure. The tech stack reveals a modern, cloud-native architecture (AWS + Node.js + React + Flutter mobile) built for scale, with active adoption of Kafka and Redis—infrastructure patterns typical of high-throughput trading platforms. Current hiring priorities cluster around engineering and product roles, alongside data and security focus, indicating ongoing work to migrate infrastructure and handle growing transaction load.
